Explanation:

When an object moves in a circular path, centripetal force acts on it. The magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by formula :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Here,

v is the speed of the ball in circular path

r is the radius of circular path

The centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the radius of the circular path. To increase the centripetal acceleration by a factor of 8, the radius must decrease by a factor of 8 keeping speed constant.

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula of the centripetal acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v^{2}}{R}

The centripetal acceleration is increased by 8 times, it means the velocity is doubled and the radius is halved.

Describe what happens to chemical<br> bonds during a chemical reaction
dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The bonds that keep molecules together break apart and form new bonds during chemical reactions, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond takes a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; the reaction does not take place without this energy, and the reactants stay as they were.

You are in charge of designing a movie stunt for a new Fast and Furious film. In this scene a stunt person has to jump from a br
blondinia [14]

Answer:

103.5 meters

Explanation:

Given that a stunt person has to jump from a bridge and land on a boat in the water 22.5 m below. The boat is cruising at a constant velocity of 48.3 m/s towards the bridge. The stunt person will jump up at 6.45 m/s as they leave the bridge.

The time the person will jump to a certain spot under the bridge can be calculated by using the formula below:

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

since the person will fall under gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Also, let assume that the person jump from rest, then, U = 0

Substitute h, U and g into the formula above

22.5 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2

22.5 = 4.9t^2

22.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 22.5/4.9

t^2 = 4.59

t = \sqrt{4.592}

t = 2.143 seconds

From definition of speed,

speed = distance /time

Given that the boat is cruising at a constant velocity of 48.3 m/s towards the bridge, substitute the speed and the time to get the distance.

48.3 = distance / 2.143

distance = 48.3 * 2.143

distance = 103.5 m

Therefore,  the boat should be 103.5m away from the bridge at the moment the stunt person jumps?
